xnitrorc Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 welcome to the forum most model shops will stock fuel for your car, so it comes down to personal preference more than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R46 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 best to add fail safe as if theres a radio signal issue it will apply brakes, if have no fail safe your car will run away an could wreck itself badly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainie Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) Right i've ordered the failsafe is it easy to install ect? 10.99 aint that bad and free p&p And im guessing that fits all Nirto cars?

R46 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) nice 1!! yes 2 minute job, just remove servo plug from CH2 on reciever plug that into (male connector from failsafe) then the lead from fail safe into reciever. To set it so brakes activate when signal lost switch car & radio on apply brakes on radio (whilst doing so with a pin press micro button on failsafe light flashes to show set) done to check all working just switch radio off brakes should come on Edited September 22, 2011 by R46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
